Bass Basics - Tutorial and Tips - What to do when Starting Out - Fishing Sim World Pro Tour 2020

I had a couple of requests to do a totally basic video on items on how to fight bass. Perfect time since I am starting over. Here, I show the basics of the HUD and how I like to fight bass as well as some retrieval techniques.
Also, I recommend when you first start the game, that you do some offline tournaments to upgrade your equipment and win lots of XP and TP doing some offline carp tournaments. That way before starting the career you will have lots of money for lures and dead baits.
I used the 3 lures starting lures and line for this tutorial.
Note: This video has some dropped frames because I was experimenting with new capture software, that will be fixed for next video.

Idk if it matters, but for the begginers, my favourite lure is “the 48 - milk money”. I usually get between 35-45lbs bags in the guntersville tournament using it

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

I love that lure as well, I have a whole trouting video where I focus on those plastic worm lures, thanks for sharing!

[@tankvjr1158]

Thank you for all the great tips! I went from breaking my first two linesto catching four 10 + pound bass in my first amateur event!

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

That's awesome, glad I could help, good luck and have fun!

[@stpbasss3773]

Amateur is way easier than pro I won every amateur bass and carp comp but pro it's way harder to even finish top 10. I'm terrified to go to elite lol.

[@pierrecolon5679]

i just bought this tonight and tried watching the tutorial videos to no avail. i come watch this and i won my first tourney! thank you for making this video. super helpful!

[@Foyie]

One thing you don’t really mention unless I missed it is the colour of the ring around the hook indicator when you’re predator fishing as you was reeling in its showing you how well you’re presenting the lure to the fish so red is bad orange is average & green is good so basically you wanna try & make sure it’s green as much as possible to have the highest chance of bagging yourself a fish & also always read the description on the lure you’re using cause it tells you what movements work with that lure & what movements don’t so for example constant movement might work with some lures but not with others

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

That's a good point Alex! Thanks for bringing that up.

Only ever been hand fishing. Bought this game to learn some real fishing and boy is this video helping out better thantheir tutorials

This game is actually good. Minor issues with tackle box and fighting of the fish. Also I like that , just like fishing, you don’t catch every cast. You gotta work for it.

As a fishing fan I have just now found out about this game because it was on gamepass. This thing is one of my favorite games now.

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

It's pretty fun! That's how I discovered it too.

[@koenruysseveldt3848]

I bought the game and there is a very big bug which doesn't allow me to change my reel s^peed ,take part in the challenges,etc. and the dev's won't do anything about. Uninstalled ,installed it again but no avail. Euro Fishing aswell. I play on PC...

[@helprev7308]

Can you tell me why i’m fishing … when i’m catching a fish it is right unsuccess most of the time?

[@canam2436]

Somebody please help me. I bought a bunch of new lures but I don’t have them in my tackle box. I can’t pick them out to fish with, why?

[@boycottdisneyoruhatekids]

No tips on wagglers and what the numbers mean? Which are for bigger fish?

[@susansmith3209]

I'm starting from scratch. It might be useful if you make a video on what to buy with your tp when starting out. I was tired of fish breaking my 10# line and when I catch one, it takes forever to reel in. I decided to use my total TP and purchase a 30# line, figured it be useful for other species.

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

Yes, I talk a little bit about that in the carp tutorial, definitely upgrade to a #2 hook so you can snag bigger carp, after that upgrade your line and your reel. A great reel is the Haichou tournament carp reel. I recommend you doo offline tournamnets to make lots of TP and XP to make it easier for yourself on the career mode.

[@susansmith3209]

[@Deckhardt2]

I have the same wuestion

[@bae8307]

Im stuck on the it says (constant) ect what do i do?

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

"Constant" just means the pace at which you are retrieving your lure, keep it at a speed between 1 and 3, and hold down retrieve button until the "constant" turns green.

[@guitarman8462]

I'm fishing around almost the same area as you . And I caught 2 long nose gar & a giant catfish !!!

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

Yeah, you might get some other species but there are lots of bass in that area!

[@miqdadmahmood9873]

I've found out that topwater lures work best for me.

[@tipsysmichigander6483]

I just started playing, How do you use more than a singe rod at once in the water?

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

You can only use more than one rod when you're fishing on a peg (for example Waldsee or Bergsee), so if you're on the boat then you can only use one rod at a time.

[@CDELLO66]

Find a peg pick up a rod cast it and put it down and do it for the rest

[@rodneyspeiss7889]

On the ps4, how do you get out of practice to the menu to choose career mode?

[@GentlemanGaming1122]

Hello I'm new starting out I got 4 points and 6,242 cash What rod and reels and lines should I buy basically a whole fishing rod

[@LetsGoFishingSim]

Hello, if you like carp fishing, buy a #2 hook and and 30lb line, or the carp haichou torunament reel, and do carp offline tournaments to get more TP and XP. If you wanna keep fishing for bass, I like the Sonik Magna Travel 8 ft, and you can get 15 orlb Vursa line, and get more lures like the buzzbait black pague, the ocean breeze pro shad, the yum dinger christie craw to start. hope that helps. Good luck!

What are the best settings for this game ? Or are there any settings at all ? How do you decrease the line on PS4 once you hooked it ?

I don't really change any settings. You adjust your line tensions by pressing up and down on the Dpad.

Man this game is so frustrating I will catch 28 lbs of fish with 4-6 minutes left and then it won’t let me catch any more. Meanwhile 1-2 npc characters will get 31-33lbs of bass and win.... oh man it’s so annoying! I’ve played for months and I’m a decent fisherman in all other categories but the dang offline tournaments

You can also just press Y to clip the line if you have a fish you don't want to waste time on.

[@FvCPro]

I know it sounds silly but I really can't adjust the speed to 2, how does that 90 work? I can press 9 or 0 until I go crazy, nothing happens, it stays set to 3 When I shoot the fish is 5, when I throw it is 3. I don't know how to adjust to 2. Please, I need help with a more accurate explanation. Thank you very much

[@FvCPro]

Please somebody help me ! I don't understand why changing the speed 1-2-3-4-5 from setting 9 0 ?? It's standard 3 and maximum 5. I can't set to 2 when I take it out or when I work on Constant, it stays on 3 and I don't understand why I can't decrease this speed to 2, I repeat - 9 0 doesn't work. I bought the game on Steam, I don't even see where I can change the keyboard settings .... OFFFF !!!!! I was filled with poor strike !!!!
